Solution
The correct option is D Both II and III are correct In case of humans, the erythrocytes or RBCs lack nucleus (enucleated) and other major cell organelles to provide more space for haemoglobin to bind with oxygen. Whereas in the case of frogs, the RBCs have both nucleus (nucleated) and haemoglobin. They need less oxygen to survive unlike humans, who require comparitively higher concentration of oxygen for their living.
